Absolute Pot-fection
by gluet2
Absolute Pot-fection expands the vanilla pottery system, adding decorated pots and flower pots that players shape by hand from clay.
What it does
The mod turns pottery into a hands-on process. Clay balls and bricks become unfired pots, which are placed in the world and then fired by setting them above a lit campfire. Flower pots fire in about 3 seconds and decorated pots in 6 seconds, and once fired they behave like vanilla pots.
Decorated pots take a pottery sherd on the side facing the player, and the sherd is consumed, so the pot's design can be cleared again by right-clicking. Unfired pots accept any of the 16 vanilla dyes, and a water bottle washes the color off and returns the clay tone. Some sherds are gated behind scarce drops, so players earn pots with personal patterns over time.
The mod is needed on the server and optional on the client: the server must run it, and players may add it to see the pottery textures. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with files for 26.1 – 26.2 and the latest file for 26.2, under All rights reserved and not open source.
Key features
Sherd-stamped decorated pots
Right-clicking an unfired decorated pot stamps the sherd's texture onto the face it is turned toward.
Dye and water coloring
Unfired pots take any of 16 vanilla dyes, and a new dye overwrites the current color.
Twenty-plus new sherds
The mod adds more than 20 new pottery sherds with textures that add depth and variety.
Firing times
Flower pots fire in 3 seconds and decorated pots in 6 seconds when placed above a lit campfire.
Pots that store items
Decorated pots hold a stack of items, while flower pots showcase plants.
